Hi Ron!
Kelly Cupples in Yakima, Wa has about the best selection/price on powdered steels/alloys. He also carries a great selection of barstock. His phone number is: 509-949-5231 __________________ www.caffreyknives.net EdCaffreyMS@caffreyknives.net "Nobody cares what you know.....until they know you care."

Both Kelly Cupples and Aldo Bruno have some of the best prices in the industry as far as supplying steel to knifemakers goes. I placed an order a few years ago with Kelly and he took the time to call me to address any questions I had and to clarify my order. I haven't ordered from Aldo yet, but he has the same reputation.
